Abstract

Goal commitment typically relates to successful goal realization. Yet, individuals differ in how much their goals correspond to their implicit motives. We hypothesized that for those adolescents high in a given implicit motive, goal commitment and goal success in the corresponding motive domain (i.e., achievement, affiliation, power) are more closely related than for those low in the implicit motive. Data were assessed in an individualistic (Germany) and a collectivistic cultural context (Zambia) on two measurement occasions (i.e., T1: Picture Story Exercise for implicit motives; T1 and T2: GOALS questionnaire for goal commitment and success, respectively). Goal success at T2 was reliably predicted by goal importance and goal success at T1, respectively. The hypothesized interaction was found only for the implicit power motive but not for the implicit needs of achievement and affiliation, respectively. Results were equivalent across adolescents' cultural backgrounds. Findings are discussed with respect to motive-specific effects on goal dimensions.

成功的目标达成:德国和赞比亚青少年目标承诺和内隐动机的纵向效应。
目标承诺通常与成功实现目标有关。然而,每个人的目标在多大程度上与他们隐含的动机相对应是不同的。我们假设,对于那些内隐动机较高的青少年,在相应的动机领域(即成就、隶属关系、权力)中的目标承诺和目标成功比内隐动机较低的青少年更密切相关。数据是在个人主义(德国)和集体主义文化背景下(赞比亚)在两个测量场合进行评估的(即,T1:隐性动机的图片故事练习;T1和T2:分别针对目标承诺和成功的目标问卷)。T2的目标成功率分别通过T1的目标重要性和目标成功率可靠地预测。假设的互动只针对内隐的权力动机,而不针对成就和从属关系的内隐需求。结果在不同的青少年文化背景下是相同的。研究结果与动机对目标维度的具体影响有关。
